Description: The technical committee on mechatronics formed by the International
Federation for the Theory of Machines and Mechanisms, in Prague,
Czech Republic, adopted the following definition for the term:
Mechatronics is the synergistic combination of precision mechanical
engineering, electronic control and systems thinking in the design
products and manufacturing process. Due to developments in powerful
computers, including microprocessors and Application Specific
Integrated Circuits (ASICS), computational techniques, diverse
technologies, advances in the design process of products and other
factors, the field of mechatronics has evolved as a highly… more…
